Questions about F3 (1998) with F2 fairings
Hi! I posted a few times this winter about my non-running f3. Ive now finally gotten it running, and found some really cheap fairings on facebook since mine didnt have any. They were f2 fairings but bolted right on since I also got the f2 front fairing stay. However I did not get any rear fairings in the purchase, only front+side fairings as well as the taillight and its bracket. Problem is that the f2 bracket does not bolt onto the bike, the screw holes are 1/4’’ wider on mine.
To complete the fairings Ive narrowed it down to two alternatives:
1. I get the f2 rear fairings. Question then is, do they bolt right on to the frame? Or do I need to modify?
2. I get the f3 rear fairings. Question then is, do they bolt onto the side fairings of the f2, or are the screw holes different. (Id also have to get the f3 taillight and stay here)
Has anyone seen this problem before? I’ve searched a bit but haven't found any clear advice.

You can make anything fit given enough time, money, and tools. But the f2 and f3 are not directly interchangeable. You pointed out that the f2 front fairings did because you had the f2 bracket.
If it were me, I'd just stick with finding f3 fairings.
